LOL? No leaning in the game? LOL? When I played CoD4 on hardest settings, it was lean or die ;-) You had to hide behind something, lean + shoot, hide. Or you're dead! Or when you want to go through the doorway or around the corner, if you didn't lean to have a quick look around you'd most likely be shot in your face.
I played oh hardest on the console. It's lame. You just walk straight into an enemy, he starts shooting at you and you can still manage to run away.
* sigh *
And the case of Borderlands is ridiculous. The game works really well - framerate, gameplay, etc. How can you fuck up a good game? They must have tried really hard to make it happen. They must have wanted to make it feel like crappy console port.
Its the menus that piss me off. And the general feel that I should be using a gamepad. I'm a developer myself and I tell you, it doesn't take long to do this well. We're talking about simple freaking things: amount of text shown in quest description, scrolling, menu system that isn't stupid list system (as in every stupid console game); S.T.A.L.K.E.R menu system was nice. Dawn of War II inventory system is kick ass and DoW is an RTS! Map sucks, skill management tree sucks. Everything but gameplay sucks.
Haven't tried multiplayer because I couldn't get past these issues... I know writing a good netcode isn't easy (see Demigod; those guys f*ed up at launch, but they did everything in their power to fix it asap; and they did). But most of the complaints on console-itis could be addressed if ANYONE from Gearbox bothered about making PC port good.
